Sterling English Asparagus Tongs Wm. Schofield 1824/25 10 1/4 6.44 ozt. Armoria
I was torn between William Sharp and William Schofield as the maker of these wonderful tongs. They were contemporaries in London. My associates pushed me towards Schofield. These are in really great condition. I can't find any damage whatsoever.
They measure about 10 1/4 and weigh 200.3 grams, or 6.44 ozt. The piercing in the blades is fantastic, and there is a wonderful armorial.
